By 2030 all baby boomers will be older than age 65, US Census Bureau reveals
1 in every 5 Americans will be retirement age and deaths will ‘rise substantially’
The non-Hispanic White-alone population is projected to shrink to 179 million
Bureau did not reveal when white Americans will fall below half the population
Adults 65 and older will soon outnumber children for the first time in America’s history, it has been revealed.
The US Census Bureau released new projections this year that showed the country’s changing – and aging – demographics.
By 2030 all baby boomers will be older than age 65 and one in every five Americans will be retirement age.
The Census Bureau said that deaths will ‘rise substantially’ between 2020 and 2050, meaning the country’s population will naturally grow very slowly.
Projections also revealed that America will become more racially and ethnically diverse, with the country’s share of mixed-race children set to double.
The non-Hispanic White-alone population is projected to shrink from 199 million in 2020 to 179 million in 2060.
Meanwhile, the ‘Two or More Races’ population will be the fastest growing over the next several decades.
While the projections did touch on race, this time the Census Bureau did not mention when white Americans will fall below half the population.
We
need a revolution. This is basically too much work, too costly, and
too shocking for conservatives, so instead, the right wing returns to
its vomit like the dog of Proverbs. One
conservative panacea is to issue vouchers, which will prove fruitless
due to the pervasiveness of the left’s moral rot in all
schools. Parents will take their children out of an urban school full
of sexual perversion and place them into a suburban school full of
sexual perversion where classmates have more money to spend on drugs and
lax parents are more approving of social decadence. School “choice”
presents the same conundrum.
The
emphasis on conservative guest speakers backfires. After these
firebrands leave campus, the faculty become more ferocious against
conservative colleagues (wherever they may hide). The whole affair
swells the already outrageous student activities budgets with the high
price of honoraria and security. We need to force colleges to strip
away their godless involvement in people’s social lives, political
engagement, and cultural development, not add a frivolous layer of
conservative expenses to make the bloat worse.
Think of the tasks that faced kings like Hezekiah and Josiah.
One
task is an electoral one, and the other an ecclesiastical one. They
both require a frightening amount of work, steel nerves, and unflinching
discernment in the wake of massive propaganda. The churches are a more
tragic case but just as much of a problem for conservatives. More on
that another day.
A question to all the ladies who follow my modest efforts on this site: are you attracted to an academic career in the field of philosophy or not? Do you think that the claim put forward by the Left that “underepresentation” of women in philosophical faculties is a result of “implicit bias, discrimination?”
Do you think that the very term “underepresentation” is a valid one, or just another weaponised linguistic form of which Left was fond from the time of its conception?
